目的
中学领导层在任务的多样性、对时间的多重要求、平衡社区和关注教学规划方面面临多重挑战。一项新兴的学术研究表明，分布式教学领导力方法对高中领导力的重要性。然而，较少深入探讨的是中学领导力是如何在一个学区内分布的。本文的目的是调查城市高中校长在学区制中的社会结构和地位。
设计/方法/方法
这项研究是在南加州的一个城市边缘公立学区进行的，服务于不同的学生群体。这些数据是从2012年秋季至2014年秋季的三个时间点从一个包括所有中央办公室和现场领导的全区领导团队收集的。所有领导人都被要求评估他们的社会关系和对创新氛围的看法。通过一系列社会网络指数对数据进行分析，以考察高中校长的结构和职位。
发现
结果表明，随着时间的推移，高中校长获得社会资本的机会越来越少，通常在社会网络中占据边缘地位。高中校长对整个学区的创新氛围的看法随着时间的推移而下降。
原创性/价值
这项纵向研究是第一批从网络角度考察高中校长的研究之一，它揭示了城市高中校长的社会基础设施，以及这可能对改进努力意味着什么。
Purpose
Secondary school leadership provides multiple challenges in terms of the diversity of tasks, multiple demands on time, balancing communities and attending to instructional programming. An emerging scholarship suggests the importance of a distributed instructional leadership approach to high school leadership. However, what has been less thoroughly explored is how secondary school leadership is distributed leaders across a school district. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the social structure and positions urban high school principals occupy in the district system.
Design/methodology/approach
This study was conducted in one urban fringe public school district in southern California serving diverse students populations. The data were collected at three time points starting in Fall 2012 and ending in Fall 2014 from a district-wide leadership team including all central office and site leaders. All leaders were asked to assess their social relations and perception of innovative climate. The data were analyzed through a series of social network indices to examine the structure and positions of high school principals.
Findings
Results indicate that over time high school principals have decreasing access to social capital and are typically occupying peripheral positions in the social network. The high school principals’ perception of innovative climate across the district decreases over time.
Originality/value
This longitudinal study, one of the first to examine high school principals from a network perspective, sheds new light on the social infrastructure of urban high school principals and what this might mean for efforts at improvement.
